Late Acordes

Chorded by gwiz665, music&lyrics by Ben Folds
 
[Verse]
Dm         F                 Bb
Under some dirty words on a dirty wall
C       F         Bb
Eating takeout by myself
Gm           C
I played the shows
Gm              C               Bb
Got back in the van and put the Walkman on
    Bbsus2            C
And you were playing
 
Dm             F              Bb
In some other dive a thousand miles away
C          F              Bb
I played a thousand times before
Gm          C                 Gm                  C
And like pathetic stars, the truck stops and the rock club walls
   Bb
I always knew
    Bbsus2
You saw them too
                   F     C
But you never will again
 
[Chorus]
         Gm     Bb
It's too late
          F
Don't you know
              C
It's been too late
       Bb         C
For a long time
 
[Verse]
Dm        F                Bb
Elliott, man, you played a fine guitar
C        F           Bb
And some dirty basketball
Gm            C
The songs you wrote
Gm               C
Got me through a lot
           Bb            Bbsus2
Just wanna tell you that
 
[Chorus]
             F         C
But it's too late
         Gm     Bb
It's too late
              F
No, don't you know
              C
it's been too late
      Bb
for a long time
 
[B-part]
Gm C
Oh no
F            F/E    Dm
Things were looking up
      C           Bb      Bb/A
Least that's what I heard
Gm C
Oh no
F       F/E      Dm      C        Bb
Someone came and washed away your hard-earned
A        Dm
Peace of mind
 
[solo]
 
 
Dm             F                Bb
When desperate static beats the silence up
C       F                 Bb
A quiet truth to calm you down
Gm            C
The songs you wrote
Gm               C
Got me through a lot
                Bb        Bbsus2
Just wanna tell you that
 
             F     C
But it's too late
         Gm     Bb
It's too late
              F
No, don't you know
              C
it's been too late
      Bb
for a long time
         F     C
It's too late
         Gm    Bb
It's too late
              F
No, don't you know
              C
It's been too late
           Bb     Bbsus2
For a long time
